Honestly, I couldn't remember much about Paris, except that their architecture is so beautiful, and I really, really wished I came to Paris with my family so they could appreciate these views with me. The whole place was so pretty in its own way. I can't really describe it, the aura from the houses and buildings … Continue reading Paris, France
Their freaking egg tarts are out of this world!!!!!!!!! I simply can't. Egg tarts in Singapore pales in comparison. This was the place with MANY unfortunate events in the midst of enjoying the amazing views that Lisbon offers. Overall, I have to say it was quite an experience. Unfortunate events of the #TravelingChUms in Lisbon.. We … Continue reading Lisbon, Portugal

During the walking tour, the guide brought us to a few historic locations like this castle, that was originally built as a mosque, then brought down to become a church and a temple, but bits and pieces of it are retained from … Continue reading Madrid, Spain

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUkRc4po3oE Cinque Terre was the ultimate relaxing getaway because the 5 islands are small, and there is nothing much to do except to just chill by the sea and play. All I did was people-watch, cat-watch, nature-watch & sea-watch (the sea is AMAZINGLY PRETTY I could literally stare at it all day long). Accommodation Vernazza Holiday … Continue reading Cinque Terre, Italy
It was dark outside at the train station. We booked a sleeper train from Rome to Venice and went to our cabin. There was a kind lady that had already settled down who showed us our beds. She had already placed her luggage in the compartment and her black sling bag was on her bed, near the door. … Continue reading Venice, Italy
This was the first city on our list and on the first day while roaming around the city, a bird pooped on me! I was so amused. With that poop, I hereby declare that that was the official start of our backpacking travels! Accommodation: Via Antonio Musa 6 Roma, Lazio 00161 Italy Most of our accommodation is … Continue reading Rome, Italy
Pre-Summer School I wasn't keen on applying for exchange because of how expensive it is, I will have to be away from amazing home-cooked food, friends and family for at least 4 months and I didn't think my CAP was good enough. I was homesick enough when I was in hall for the whole of … Continue reading Cambridge Summer School 2015
